Lovely decor creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The staff were friendly, helpful and not overbearing at all.
It was my first visit for dinner. There were 3 of us and we ordered a combination of small plates, main dishes and dessert. We also had a cocktail each and the bill came to around £180.
The outstanding dishes for us were the rock salt prawns which were juicy and delicious. The crab tostadas were great, as were the crispy potatoes. The short rib and butternut squash dishes were ok. But the star was the burnt cheesecake which was absolutely divine!! The cocktails also deserve a mention. I loved the Spicy cocktail which was definitely spicy, strong and delicious.
Would definitely recommend a visit, although there is not much of a choice for non meat eaters who also dislike seafood. Yes, they exist! Otherwise , I loved it and would definitely visit again .

Excellent experience! The food was excellent, and the service was simply wonderful. Thanks to Samia for the amazing hospitality. The place is very atmospheric, with interesting design and lighting. Everything we tried was absolutely fantastic. For the main course, we had the stone bass, and the sauces were simply perfect, as well as the tempura — the prawns were absolutely incredible.

Absolutely delicious food with super friendly attentive staff. Just a bit popular so noisy! You must try the rib which is cooked for 18 hours and the spiced Mexican mango dessert, both utterly wonderful. Thank you All!

Delicious Fiesta at Ixchel! ✨ Step into a world where modern Mexican cuisine meets the enchanting ambiance of the Mayan goddess herself.

From the tantalizing sizzle of the robata grill to the exquisite flavors of locally sourced ingredients, @Ixchel.London wowed us at every bite! The hand-dived scallops were a sea-born delight, the pork belly tacos a fusion masterpiece, and the short ribs… pure bliss! The menu’s crowned jewels! And let’s talk drinks – the margaritas from ‘The Lost’ were a zesty paradise, while the Chilli Old Fashioned brought the perfect fiery twist! ️ Can’t wait to dive back into this gastronomic adventure! Already counting down the days till my return!

The atmosphere is incredible it’s worth visiting even just to take photos. The food was absolutely delicious; honestly, one of the best Mexican meals I’ve ever had. The staff were extremely attentive and made us feel like we were being personally taken care of. Even the restroom design was stunning and spotlessly clean. We were happy with everything.

If you’re going to Ixchel, go in knowing this: the place is a visual knockout before the food even lands. Upstairs feels like you’ve stepped into a sun-drenched Mexican daydream: bright, colourful, warm, and unapologetically family-friendly. Think holiday energy without the flight. But head downstairs and it flips completely. The “cave” level is intimate, moody, seductive, the kind of spot where conversations get slower and the drinks hit harder. Two floors, two totally different worlds, and both done right.

Portions? Shockingly generous for Chelsea. They’re not playing the tiny-plate-for-big-money game here.

The standout hits:
• Pork tacos: packed, juicy, no dead space in the tortilla.
• Prawn quesadillas: ridiculous. Rich, cheesy, loaded with prawns, and basically impossible to share politely.
• Ribeye steak – fantastic. Proper flavour, proper char, not the usual overpriced disappointment London throws at you.

And the finale: the burnt Basque cheesecake. The cherry on top – creamy, smoky, and genuinely the kind of dessert you regret agreeing to share.

Bottom line: Ixchel nails atmosphere on both floors, serves big portions, and delivers dishes that aren’t just pretty, they’re actually worth eating. Perfect for a loud, sunny group meal upstairs or a darker, close-conversation night downstairs.

Decoration and atmosphere is nice. The food wasn’t that great, the tacos were toasted which I don’t think is very authentic also they weren’t corn tortillas.
The staff were a bit strange in how they treated us, not the best customer service. They also charged us one extra still water which if we haven’t looked at the bill, we would have been missed and overcharged. They happily removed it from the bill but not the best experience.
Also, portions are very small for the amount you pay!

I had a fantastic experience at Ixchel London! Rishabh, our waiter, gave us exceptional service from start to finish. His food and drink recommendations were spot on and really elevated our meal. Everything we tried was delicious, and his friendly, attentive approach made the evening even better. Highly recommend both the restaurant and asking for Rishabh if you visit!

Nice place very disappointed about the service specially when asking for tortillas we were 4 people ordered 3 plates to share 3 required tortillas, the amount that came in the first round was 6 pieces “included” and then every time we asked for was 4 and needed to wait obviously all got cold which was very disappointing and then we ended up paying for each 4 tortillas £3. I don’t mind paying but every time and for each round to have a cold meal I don’t think is good enough.

We came here for my birthday and was the perfect atmosphere – we were treated with a complimentary dessert as well / staff were very kind.

The star of the show was the beautifully set vibe of the whole restaurant, but the food was equally impressive. The shrimp tacos was my favorite personally and the crab tostadas was my partner’s. We also got a t-bone with a side of potatoes and fresh, warm tortillas which we definitely recommend – meat was very tender, juicy, and seasoned.

Has become my favorite Mexican restaurant in London but is a little bit on the pricier side if you’re looking to get a casual bite.
